I am a real person.<BR/><BR/>The case was referred to the district attorney because of the propensity of David Parker to sue the school district, not because of the actual merits of the case.<BR/><BR/>I do believe the attack was premeditated--kids will fight over things like seating in a lunchroom. It is an unfortunate part of life. But Brian Camenker's account doesn't square with anything the children involved said happened. <BR/><BR/>You can choose to believe what you wish to believe to be the truth.

You are so convinced gays are evil people, you wouldn't hear anything that contradicts your beliefs anyway.<BR/><BR/>You keep claiming that if this was a child being beaten up for being gay, it would all be different. The real truth is that kids are beaten up for being gay everday. You don't even hear about it because the schools don't do anything to stop it. Anti-bullying laws don't protect gay kids. Even in California the bullying laws have failed to pass because it protects gays kids. In states where they do have anti-bullying laws, the laws only passed if sexual orientation was removed from the language.<BR/><BR/>It is pretty clear, you will never see gays as anything less than evil and that is far from accurate and pretty sad. It is sad you carry such a mudd colored view of others just because you want to.Joe Brummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05009786540412135450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1150811511813836182006-06-20T06:51:00.000-07:002006-06-20T06:51:00.000-07:00grantdale,Obviously, you choose to ignore the hist...grantdale,<BR/><BR/>Obviously, you choose to ignore the history and facts surrounding and leading up to this incident.

It appears that you and "Charles" have ...Sorry Joe. It appears that you and "Charles" have been duped into the new "spin" job going around about this incident. Otherwise, why would the superintendent need to ask the district attorney to investigate it?<BR/><BR/>The following is some additional information that has come to light about this incident.<BR/><BR/>Lexington, MA, school superintendent asks District Attorney to investigate beating of David Parker's first-grade son on two-year anniversary of same-sex "marriage" in Massachusetts. <BR/><BR/>Superintendent acknowledges in press release that move comes from pressure from MassResistance!<BR/><BR/>Local police and state Dept. of Social Services also requested by schools to conduct investigation.<BR/><BR/>At the same time, Lexington school officials begin nasty public spin campaign against the Parkers to discredit them. Superintendent writes bizarre, rambling account of incident in press release.<BR/><BR/>WORSE: School officials leak "facts" to local pro-gay group prior to superintendent's press release. Gay group issues its own press release day before Superintendent's press release.<BR/><BR/>Why did school wait a month to act?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Lexington school superintendent Paul Ash has announced that he is requesting the Middlesex County District Attorney, as well as the Lexington police department and Massachusetts Department of Social Services to investigate the May 17 beating of David Parker's first-grade son by a group of kids during recess. <BR/><BR/>As we reported in last Wednesday's email: on May 17 - the two-year anniversary of same-sex "marriage" in Massachusetts - David Parker's first-grade son, Jacob, was led to a secluded area and beaten by a group of kids at the Estabrook Elementary School in Lexington during recess, receiving multiple blows to the chest, stomach, and genital area.<BR/><BR/>Last year David Parker was arrested and made national news over the school's refusal to notify him when adults discuss homosexuality or transgenderism with his son, then in kindergarten. The school system has continued to refuse to notify any parents. On April 27, 2006, Parker, his wife, and another family filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the school system.<BR/><BR/>MassResistance has chronicled the hostile and at times virulent anti-David Parker campaign both inside the Estabrook Elementary School and throughout the Lexington community by a pro-gay group in Lexington organized specifically to target Parker, which many believe has incited young children in the town and especially at the Estabrook Elementary School.<BR/><BR/>Read the full MassResistance account <A HREF="http://www.massresistance.com/docs/events06/parker_incident/index.html" REL="nofollow">here.</A><BR/><BR/>Last Wednesday, June 14, after a month of waiting to see if the school system would act on its own, MassResistance finally brought this terrible incident to light. The next day it was in the Boston Globe and on the front page of the local Lexington Minuteman newspaper. Your calls and emails, we're told, flooded the school and the superintendent from across the country.<BR/><BR/>Two days later, in his press release, dated June 16, the superintendent publicly acknowledged that pressure from MassResistance forced the school to confront the issue and to admit and act upon the seriousness of the matter - in the face of growing outrage. <BR/><BR/><BR/>But more anti-Parker spin by Superintendent and other school officials.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, the Superintendent and other school officials now appear have begun a nasty, even vicious PR campaign against the Parker family, and the public's perception of the facts surrounding the incident. This is reflected by the bizarre, rambling account of the "facts" in the press release, which largely contradicts the Parkers' account of what happened, which at the time school officials had generally acknowledged. <BR/><BR/>(We are also concerned that that the superintendent's decision to get the Department of Social Services (DSS) involved is a retribution of sorts against the Parkers. We don't see any reason for it. The DSS has a sordid reputation for terrorizing families and threatening to take their kids away from them. We will be monitoring that.)<BR/><BR/>Read the bizarre press release from Lexington Superintendent Paul Ash <A HREF="http://www.massresistance.com/docs/events06/parker_incident/press_releases.html#release_june16" REL="nofollow">here.</A><BR/><BR/><BR/>It gets worse - school officials leak "facts" to local pro-gay group.<BR/><BR/>Prior to the Superintendent's press release, the Estabrook librarian and other school officials apparently spoke privately with the local pro-gay Lexington group, "LexingtonCares", that has devoted itself to a year of virulent attacks on David Parker. <BR/><BR/>On Thursday, June 15 - the day before the Superintendent's press release LexingtonCares issued its own anti-Parker press release which presents yet another "official" spin story of what happened. In the press release, LexingtonCares references information they received from the Estabrook principal, assistant principal, nurse, teacher, and school librarian! <BR/><BR/>The obvious question: Why are these school officials talking to a local homosexual activist group about this incident? This is not only extremely unprofessional, but troubling and offensive. <BR/><BR/>Read the "LexingtonCares" press release <A HREF="http://www.massresistance.com/docs/events06/parker_incident/press_releases.html#release_june15" REL="nofollow">here.</A><BR/><BR/>It goes without saying that the hypocrisy surrounding this is breathtaking. If this had been the other side - for instance, a child with "gay" parents who had been assaulted - they would have practically closed the schools over it. But when this incident occurred, it appears to have been downplayed as much as possible. School officials determined that neither the school nurse nor the police should be called - that the school would handle it. No one was suspended from school; instead (as the Superintendent mentioned) they got yet another session of the pro-homosexual "Open Circle" diversity program.<BR/><BR/>The bottom line: A lot of people want to know why it took the school system an entire month to take this seriously. If we hadn't publicly raised the issue they would still be trying to sweep it under the table. That's why citizens' groups like MassResistance are so important.<BR/><BR/>We'll stay on top of any developments in this.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1150756725551717262006-06-19T15:38:00.000-07:002006-06-19T15:38:00.000-07:00Sadly, You have been a victim of great misinforma...Sadly, You have been a victim of great misinformation. The school, and the parents of the children have all verified this story has been blow up.<BR/><BR/>Only 2 students were fighting.<BR/><BR/>It was not premeditated.<BR/><BR/>It had nothing to do with homosexuality or gay rights, it had to do with lunch table seating.<BR/><BR/>Why are you still promoting this story when it is will known at this point to be false hate propaganda?<BR/><BR/>I have yet to meet a first grader with a political agenda. You should correct the story and offer and apologee for everr postint it without all the facts. <BR/><BR/>This is nothing more than passive violence that fuels the fires for hatred and violence against gays. Stop making gays look like monsters. It is wrong and you know it. No wonder hate crimes against gays are up.<BR/><BR/>There are so many lies in this post and on your blog about gays and lesbians it sickens me. What is christian about lies? Bearing false witness. This makes me sick to my stomach to see how proud you all are of these lies. <BR/><BR/>You should all be ashamed of yourselves.Joe Brummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05009786540412135450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1150668469317491262006-06-18T15:07:00.000-07:002006-06-18T15:07:00.000-07:00Charles,I am glad to hear that one of the boys who...Charles,<BR/><BR/>I am glad to hear that one of the boys who beat up young Jacob has reconciled his friendship with him. However, this does not negate the many facts surrounding this incident that you have clearly chosen to ignore:<BR/><BR/>1. <B>Four</B> of the attackers were from Jacob's first-grade class; <B>the others</B> were from other classes at Estabrook.<BR/><BR/>2. <B>School authorities told the Parkers that from their investigation they have determined that the beating was indeed planned and premeditated.</B><BR/><BR/>3. Anti-Parker websites and rallies.<BR/><BR/>4. *Adults in Lexington have conducted a nasty and hateful anti-Parker letter-writing campaign in the local newspaper, the Lexington Minuteman, that has lasted for well over a year.<BR/><BR/>*The "Lexington Cares" group, and others, have recruited young children to participate in angry anti-David Parker public demonstrations. (Pictures can be viewed at website).<BR/><BR/>5. We also know that activist lesbian mothers and vehement anti-David Parker parents are spewing hateful, inflaming rhetoric, and probably also to their young children. What kind of atmosphere are they creating? Are their children acting out their parents' hate? Was this attack part of the "group think" that the pro-homosexual crowd espouses? "<BR/><BR/>Isn't the school supposed to be addressing safety and preventing bullying and violence? Or are such programs only focused on children with homosexual parents? You can be certain that if this happened to a child with homosexual parents more would be made of this and that "lessons" teaching tolerance and diversity of homosexual behavior normalization would be forced upon the young children."<BR/><BR/>6. The hatred and vituperative nature of the homosexual activists and their allies, both in the schools and in the community, toward anyone who does not agree with their agenda has been well documented.Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1150667168550847472006-06-18T14:46:00.000-07:002006-06-18T14:46:00.000-07:00Yeah Mark,Some (MANY!) live in Massachusetts!heh h...Yeah Mark,<BR/><BR/>Some (MANY!) live in Massachusetts!<BR/><BR/>heh heh<BR/><BR/>;-)Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-1150639389604026882006-06-18T07:03:00.000-07:002006-06-18T07:03:00.000-07:00Unfortunately, Brian Carmenker's "facts" were made...Unfortunately, Brian Carmenker's "facts" were made up, and the boy who was punched and the boy who punched him remain friends--to the point of still going over to each other's houses to play after the incident.

It is too much of a coincidence that this boy was targeted for his parent's Christian beliefs and their objection to homosexual indoctrination going on in Massachusetts schools.<BR/><BR/>I only have a quick minute today, but wanted to add this.<BR/><BR/>I sincerely feel that the groups that promote gay activism in schools are placing those with different beliefs (e.g. that homosexual behavior is sinful, dangerous to health, and a deviant type of behavior)in a dangerous and unsafe place. Their mantra of promoting the pro-homosexual agenda in schools under the guise of "safe schools" and "fighting hate" is creating even more division and grief for parents and their children that don't want exposure to such behavior and information (especially at such a young age!).<BR/><BR/>What about students who get harrassed and teased for having red hair or freckles; being skinny or fat; tall or short? <BR/><BR/>One alternative is for schools to drop the pro-gay indoctrination agenda and use a teaching method that promotes "safe schools" and "fighting hate" for ALL STUDENTS. A good one that was utilized when my kids were in high school was <A HREF="http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0212302/index.html" REL="nofollow">Breaking Down the Walls.</A> This a a much better alternative for helping kids get along with eachother <B>despite</B> their differences.<BR/><BR/>I really think that the gay activist agenda going on in schools needs to be exposed for what it really is...homosexual indoctrination. I plan to use my voice and writing on this issue because so much is at stake for our children and grandchildren!Christinewjchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18434229284833642438noreply@blogger.com
